Information - Dr Richard Shepherd: Time of Death – More Unnatural Causes

Hi everyone! If you’re a fan of true crime or have ever been fascinated by the science behind the headlines, we have a truly unique evening coming to Ipswich that you won’t want to miss. We are thrilled to welcome the UK’s most distinguished forensic pathologist, Dr Richard Shepherd, to the Corn Exchange this autumn!

Uncover the Mysteries of Life and Death

On Thursday, 15th October 2026, Dr Shepherd returns to the stage with his brand-new tour, Time of Death – More Unnatural Causes. Following his previous sell-out tours, this evening promises to be a captivating deep dive into the world of forensic investigation.

In the world of pathology, time is everything. It can be the key to solving a murder, understanding a tragic accident, or explaining the unexplained. Dr Shepherd will take us behind the scenes to show how he asks the right questions of the silent witnesses—the bodies themselves—to uncover truths that others might miss.

A Career Defined by History

With over 23,000 autopsies to his name, Dr Richard Shepherd has been at the heart of some of the most high-profile cases of our time. During the evening, he will share insights from his work on cases that shaped history, including:

• The Princess Diana Inquiry
• The 9/11 Terrorist Attacks
• The Hungerford Massacre
• The “Spy in the Bag” (Gareth Williams)
• The London Bombings

From facing serial killers to uncovering the reality of freak accidents, his work has brought justice to many and shed light on the darkest corners of humanity.

A Deeply Personal Story

This isn’t just a talk about science; it’s a deeply personal look at the man behind the scalpel. Dr Shepherd will share what it’s like to spend decades walking the line between life and death. You’ll hear about the personal cost of such an extraordinary career and how a life surrounded by tragedy has shaped his perspective on what it means to be alive.

Whether you’re a science buff, a true crime enthusiast, or just curious about the human condition, this show is set to be gripping, moving, and full of unexpected revelations.
